Any help would > be appreciated. The documentation is there to be read :-) How were you planning on mirroring it? As a simple mirror of the FreeBSD web site, or by organising the texts within your own site? If it's the former, we have a variety of tools that can make this easier for you. A couple of things. Obviously, any attribution on the texts has to remain. If, during the course of mirroring the texts you discover problems (typos, incorrect information, that sort of thing) we'd greatly appreciate a note being sent to us so we can correct it. Finally, if you've got any plans to arrange to have your own documentation (articles, and so on) produced, we'd like to be able to mirror them from you -- perhaps a month or so after it first appears on your site. Doing that will increase their exposure even more, and also make them accessible to our translation teams (Japanese, Russian, Spanish, French, Chinese, and more at the moment). Thanks for getting in touch. If you've got specific questions please don't hesitate to send them on. N -- Internet connection, $19.95 a month. Computer, $799.95. Modem, $149.95. Telephone line, $24.95 a month. Software, free. USENET transmission, hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Thinking before posting, priceless. Somethings in life you can't buy.
